Hello,
Could someone offer a simple explanation of IGMP snooping and how it relates to AB Ethernet IP devices on a network?
My specific issue is a Panelview on a network of other SLC 5/05 PLCs, HMIs, etc. Part of the newtwork including some Micrologix 1100s is on the other side of a MDS iNET 900 Ethernet radio link.
The wirless bandwidth on the iNETs is getting hammered. The IT folks think they have narrowed it down to ARP requests coming from the PanelView.
Everything is on the same class C subnet. Will a managed switch with IGMP snooping enabled help solve this problem and keep this traffic off the wireless section of the network?
Thanks,
Warren
